Journalist Ed Conway went on a journey to discover where the things we use in everyday life come from. He narrowed that search down to six vital materials: sand, salt, iron, copper, oil and lithium. These materials, he says, are like a gateway allowing us to see the spectrum of different things around us that really do matter. These materials from the ground that have enabled us to connect with each other, to provide energy and make machines. Guest: Ed Conway, Economics and Data Editor of Sky News and columnist for The Times and Sunday Times. He is the author of: Material World: a substantial story of our past and future published by Penguin.Credits: Presenter: Richard AedyProducer: Kate MacDonaldThis program was first broadcast on 15th February, 2024

(Conversation recorded on May 7th, 2024)   Show Summary:  In contrast to ‘The Great Simplification', some might call the events of the last few hundred years a ‘Great Complexification' in terms of relationships, governance, supply chains, and many other human activities. Today's conversation with economics journalist Ed Conway focuses on the six essential resources that underpin our modern economies –  sand, salt, iron, copper, oil, and lithium - and dives into the (often unseen) environmental and human costs of extracting them, as well as the surprisingly fragile global supply chains they fuel. In order to understand what possibilities – and dangers – may await us in the future, we need to understand the realities and constraints of the present, as well as the fail points of the past. What does it take to mine, refine, and transform the materials that are foundational to the world around us - which many of us now take for granted? How can we ensure the stability of global supply chains, and could we predict potential disruptions and chokepoints before they arise? If we understood the intricate web of complexity, energy, and resources that go into everything we consume, would it change our expectations for how much we need in order to live a good and fulfilling life? About Ed Conway: Ed Conway is a writer and broadcaster. He is the Economics and Data Editor of Sky News and has written for many newspapers and publications, including the New York Times, the Times of London and the New Statesman. His latest book, Material World, was an Economist and Sunday Times Book of the Year and was shortlisted for the 2023 FT Business Book of the Year Award. He has also written two other critically acclaimed and bestselling books and has won numerous awards for his journalism. He was educated at Oxford and Harvard. He lives in London.   For Show Notes and More visit:  https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/episode/127-ed-conway To watch this video episode on Youtube → https://youtu.be/4C2-tWcFKfQ  

While an SNP motion calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza will be debated in the House of Commons today, all eyes are on Labour. The party has tiptoed around a position on the war in Gaza since the terrorist attacks of October 7th, causing divisions among MPs and supporters. Will Keir Starmer's eleventh hour echo of “an immediate ceasefire” be enough to see off another rebellion and hold his party together in an election year?

Our battleground state polling continues, as we take a look at Arizona and Pennsylvania. In one way, little has changed in Arizona since the nail-biting 2020 results, as the Governor's race is nearly dead even. But what is different is what appears to be ticket splitters giving the Senate contest a very different look. Pennsylvania, on the other hand, is looking pretty solidly blue, as Democratic candidates in both races lead with considerable margins. We have looked through the data to understand what groups in each state are driving the divergent results.Next, it's all about predicting the future as we focus on polls and forecasts. We're joined by Data Editor for The Economist (@TheEconomist), Dan Rosenheck (@DanRosenheck), who easily switches between detailed explanations of how he's built the publication's election forecast model for the midterms to why so many people misunderstand how forecasts differ dramatically from polls. And, he gives the odds on Aaron Judge beating Roger Maris's record.Finally, let's face the (fun) facts- growing old is a part of the road trip of life, but where will you end up? Do people retire to the place they want to or the place that just makes sense?

“No data exists on its own; there has to be a story, or a theory, or a hypothesis which connects that and everything else that we know about the world or the subject matter of your story. When you say that these two states in northern India have developed, is it reflected in the GDP per capita numbers? Is it reflected in the unemployment numbers, that government data itself is collecting? Is it reflected in the other development indicators?”That is Pramit Bhattacharya - the ex-Data Editor at Mint and currently a freelance data columnist based in Chennai. He writes the 'Truth, Lies, and Statistics' column for Mint, and 'Simply Economics' column for the Hindustan Times.Data is the core raw material with which we build a story. If the quality of your sand or clay is rubbish, then the bricks, and the house that you build with it, will also be rubbish.Pramit has spent several years tracking macro data in India - from various government and institutional sources. He deeply understands the storied history of India's statistical infrastructure as well as some of the recent troubling developments in that space. Over the years, he has written several detailed pieces arguing for what needs to be done to improve our data foundation.He has also written data-driven investigative pieces which have shed more light on key sectors of the economy.In this conversation, Pramit shares some of the techniques that we can all use when working with data:1. The importance of validating your data.  - How do you know what data sources (especially from the government) to trust?  - How the use of transparency - especially concerning the raw-data and collection methodology - can engender trust in data?  - And how you can check the credibility of one metric by triangulating data from other related sources?2. Hypotheses vs bias: Pramit also shares the technique he uses to avoid getting swayed by his own hypotheses and biases when he's investigating a data story.3. Counter-factuals: Finally, he talks about the importance of the counterfactual - a key technique to ensure that we don't get too influenced by alarmist headlines. By asking ourselves - 'Ok, X looks bad, but what is the counterfactual? What is the norm for a similar context?' - we can be better placed to come to an informed judgement about X.It's a conversation filled with practical nuggets of wisdom that you can use to improve your own data stories.Unfortunately, we had to cut this conversation a bit short because of an unforeseen commitment that he had. I definitely hope to continue my conversation with Pramit sometime in the future!With that, let's dive in.***Show notes:Pramit's columns in MintPramit's columns for Hindustan TimesPramit on Twitter and LinkedInPramit's article on reading budget dataPramit's article on the pitfalls of night lights data

The recall election has been set for Tuesday, September 14. Candidates looking to challenge Governor Gavin Newsom for his seat have about two weeks to officially file for the race. Reporter: Katie Orr, KQED There are growing concerns about the highly transmissible Delta variant of the coronavirus in Los Angeles County. New COVID-19 cases have more than doubled since most of the state's coronavirus restrictions were lifted on June 15. Reporter: Jackie Fortier, KPCC   In the wake of California's record-breaking wildfire season last fall, NPR and California affiliate stations have found that the Federal Emergency Management Agency only approved 5% of the applications it received from people for assistance. Thats the lowest approval rate for FEMA aid for any California wildfire disaster on record. Guest: Sean McMinn, Data Editor, NPR The Los Angeles City Council has approved a measure that would restrict homeless encampments near homeless shelters, daycare centers and a number of other public facilities. It would also prohibit tents from blocking sidewalks. Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg has announced a plan to combat the city's growing homeless population. The city would adopt a right to housing law, but also calls for an obligation from those who are unsheltered to accept housing and shelter when it's offered to them.
